www.warhammer-community.com/2021/04/19/quiz-which-of-these-new-slaaneshi-daemons-are-you/Voila! They sort of look like a Keeper of Secrets, but even more excessive, which fits with the whole Slaanesh thing. I figured I'd throw this out here as well, because I'm not sure it warrants it's own post just yet: There have been rumours floating around online that this whole Broken Realms thing will end similarly to the Psychic Awakening event for 40K, in that when it's over there will be a new edition for AoS. What are your thoughts on a potential 3rd edition?

So, it turns out that the Slaanesh battletome came out roughly two months ago, and now there are new things again.
The main theory is that the book itself was delayed due to covid, and that there was supposed to be a bigger gap between the release of the book and these new models. At least, that's the current speculation. Hopefully it's not GW doing it on purpose to invalidate the new book as soon as possible to force people into buying more.

Apparently me owning four slaanesh greater daemons wasn't enough for GW... now I need to buy two more?

From the size of their bodies, they look like they're a bit smaller; though will stand as large due to the flying capes, wings, etc. Maybe a daemon prince-like unit?

I like them. Though I'm not sure the fighter really says "combat monster" to me. I'm surprised to see these models. I didn't think we'd see baby slaanesh actually on the table.
I suspect you're right about the timing. Everything is a bit off right now. I don't think it will be as bad as lumineth getting a second battletome in well under a year though. One new kit shouldn't require a new book. Although if they wanted to take another pass at the point values in the one that just released, I wouldn't complain.

They posted a video with them alongside daemonettes, and they look to be the same size as the Keeper kit.
